Parents' Association News 2019/20

April 2020

Happy Easter to all our families at Scoil Chroí Íosa! We hope you enjoy your Easter mid-term break. 

Prior to the school closing in March, the committee had already purchased Easter eggs for the raffle. We decided to go ahead with the raffle and deliver the prizes to the winners, which were 3 per class. Each teacher will email the parents of the winners to advise them of collection details.   Congrats to all the winners!

Due to the COVID-19 outbreak, we have cancelled all fundraising activities for the foreseeable future.

We will post some helpful educational links over on our Facebook page as they are brought to our attention.

Take Care of yourselves and your families.

Sincerely, Parents Association Committee.

Exciting changes to school tracksuit:
Following on from discussions over the years between parents and school management, we are excited to say that there will be a change of school tracksuit beginning September 2020. It will be a transitional change for the school year 20/21 and further information will be sent officially from the school in the coming weeks.
The school wants the involvement of parents in deciding the ‘look’ of the new tracksuit and the other options available, and with that being said, 2 design options will be on show at the Valentines Coffee Morning for parents to view. Not to take away from the event itself, the samples are only there for show. There will be numerous opportunities over the coming months for parents to view the options along with also being on display in the Junior building just inside the main entrance door.

January 2020

We are delighted to say the School and BOM have approved an official Facebook Page for the Parents Association. The idea has been floating around a while now and rather than you seeing posts from different parents regarding school PA activity, you will now see posts directly from the Parents Association as a team. 


The page will be run as an 'Information & News' source and will not be managed as a discussion forum. And as always, please contact the school directly if you have any concerns about any aspect of the school itself. 
Please 'Like' our Page at the link below, and we hope you enjoy the content we have to share with you.

After its success last year, the Parents Association are delighted to bring back our ‘Movie Night’ to the school..!!

We try to make our fundraising efforts fun for the kids where possible and this year we showed 3 different CHRISTMAS movies! Children will be supervised at all times with the help of many of our parents.

​If your child has taken part in our Christmas Card initiative, then they will be bringing home a sample of their creation tomorrow (Tuesday). From the artwork submitted below you can see what a talented bunch of students we have, and the school are super proud of their hard work!

As wonderful as they are and a great keepsake to have, there is no pressure on parents to purchase these, however Grandparents, Aunts, Uncles, neighbours, etc are all welcome to purchase also. We urge you to send back in the completed order form on or before FRIDAY 29th in order to get printing started and back to you in time for sending out prior to Christmas!

Below picture are some of our pupils amazing artwork!!

As Always, Many Thanks for your Continued Support
